Seasonal energy efficiency ratio
Term · Environment · MLC-T-ENV-024951
A measure of seasonal or annual efficiency of a central air conditioner or air conditioning heat pump. It takes into account the variations in temperature that can occur within a season, rather than a single temperature, and is the average number of Btu of cooling delivered for every watt-hour of electricity. The higher the SEER, the more energy efficient the system.
